Ripple Shares North Korea Threat Intelligence to Prevent Future Crypto Hacks

Ripple has begun sharing internal threat intelligence on North Korea's hacking activity with members of the Crypto ISAC platform.

The data includes enriched profiles of suspected North Korean IT operatives, tying together email addresses, domains, and malware infrastructure used across multiple campaigns.

This move comes in response to a wave of DPRK-linked attacks that have targeted DeFi protocols this year, including the hacks on Solana-based Drift Protocol and re-staking platform KelpDAO.

The $577 million stolen from these two incidents accounts for 76% of all hack losses this year.
